"Oh no," said Margaret. "You see, I'm a hjly terror." She was a quicksilver child. Her comments were olten sophis ticaled and witty beyond her years. She had an irrepressibli sense of humor. Talent For Music Even at two she could sing in pei feet. lune. It soon became ap parent she had a great talent lor music and mimicry. At three she developed proba bly the first of her remarkable friendships among the world of I he talented and imaginative. This was with Scottish playwriter Sir James Barrie, author of "Peter Pan." He wrote a play in which he used some of her childish dia logue and arranged to pay her in pennies for the plagiarism. At six she made her first pub lic appearance, wearing a tiny crown, at her father's coronation The pomp and ceremony, the busy days when the royal family moved into Buckingham Palace, seemed a little bewildering to the little princess. "Since my father turned king, she said, I don t seem to be anyone at all." Afterwards her childhood was a sheltered round of days in which she was privately tutored, spent long hours racing down the pal ace's endless corridors and bi cycling in .its walled-off garden Meets Tnwnsrnd She made her first speech at 14, the same year she met Peter Townsend, then a 29-year-old wing commander. As a teen-ager she assumed her first royal responsibilities and be gan to make more and more pub lic appearances. At 17 she accom panied the King and Queen on a South African tour.

Ph. 70 Ml Study Predicts Scramble When Negroes Get Ballot WASHINGTON (AP) What happens lo the while Southern politicians now fighting civil rights legislation when Negroes in the South finally are able - to vole in large numtxos? There is only one realistic an swer. They will do exactly what Iheir apposite numbers now dc Like the politicians from Northern areas with big Negro voting pop ulations, the Southerners will scramble for the Negro vote. It is no accident that in Con gress many of the most active advocates of civil rights legisla tion come from Northern centers Figures Show Duck Decline WASHINGTON (AP) The Interior Department, in a report on ils annual winter survey, said Sunday the population of migra lory waterfowl of the North Amer ican continent was 17 per cent lower in January than a year earlier.

BROOKS 631 So. 6th Ph. TU 4-3262 Klamath Foils, Oregon STATE FARM MUTUAL ' AVTMOttlC IMSUMNCl COMMHV OttKC: Bfoemtngton, lmntt where there arc heavy concentra tion of Nejio voters. The old order of racial dis crimination in the South will have to melt under pressure from bolh the rest of (he nation and the rest of the world. As time passes the Neitro. will hold the balance of political power in many areas of the South. No politician can ignore it or ficht it. The present Southern filibuster against civil rights, if it is not the last of its kind, may be close to the last, since more protection lor Negroes and their rights is inevitable. The present filibuster seems to have little of the dead end bitter ncss of oilier years when South ern members of Congress had real hope of blocking a civil rights bill with their delaying tactics. The filibustering going on now is like some kind of gentlemen's agreement. Eighteen Southerners are doing the talking. The other 112 senators arc waiting them out, patiently and gently. They have more than enough voles lo ram Ihrough a civil rights bill of some kind. All the Southerners can hope is that their filibuster may get them a milder bill than if they didn't light at all. Since whites still dominate Southern voting, ail 18 filibuster ing Southerners know they must put up some kind of scrap if they hope to be re-elected when they run again. But the Southern white front of discrimination, even though still sturdy and active, is crumbling under the impact of events in this country and overseas. The Supreme Court, backed by the government and public opinion which has been antagonized by Southern extremists and lynch ings, has led the way in forcing an end to discrimination. Overseas, where colonialism has collapsed and one Negro nation after another is coming to life in Africa, racial barriers are break ing down fast. It is particularly embarrassing lo the American government which is appealing lo backward people of all colors to keep away from communism, lo have racial violence and discrimination in our own back yard. Southern treatment of Negroes has given the Communist world free ammunition to use against us All these things, piling up, can not help but erode the rcsislencc of Southern whiles to more equal treatment for Negroes and make the white South self conscious of ils conduct. College Prexie Hits Frivolity CHICAGO (AP) - The money that many a college student spends to live it up in Joe College style ought to be used instead for increased tuition, a college presi dent said today. Howard R. Bowen of Grinnell (Iowa) College said "the educa tional and financial stakes arc too high to condone the frittering away on luxurious living the funds that should go to education." 'In many institutions," he said, "the accepted style of life in cludes automobiles, liquor, fra ternities or luxurious dormitories, expensive wardrobes, night clubs, extended ski trips, etc. At no in stitution does this pattern extend to all students, but in many it is the standard which sets the tone and to which most students aspire."

To Be Operative THE HAGUE (AP) Holland's first nuclear reactor, bought from Britian for $140,000, will go into operation at Pcttcn on the North Sea coast.

Municipal Court Judge Jacob Lcwiton invoked the law Monday and ordered Sonya Lightfoot, 19, to return to Georgia. An attorney for the Cily Wel fare Department told the court Ihe girl came here in December from Millon, Ga. She has been living at a city home. Commission Asks. More Restrictions On Measures Toward Incorporation SACRAMENTO (UPD - As Hunts stand now, almost any 5IMI neighborly-minded citizens of Cal itornia can bend together, incor porate and call themselves a city. There are some restrictions: They have to live in the same area although there's no restric tion on the area's size, and they cant do it if they're in a city that already exists. But the Governor's Commission on Metropolitan Area Problems which ended a three-day confer ence here Sunday, would like to see a lew more restrictions in the state's law books. Commission Chairman Roy Sor- enson said, "there ought to be some minimum conditions dial guarantee a good city, like stand aids of population density and proof thai the cily can furnish needed services." As an example of things the commission would like to prevent. Sorenson cited the town of In dustry in Los Angeles County. which ho said was formed by "special interests" and w a s really nothing more than "a litllc strip on both sides of a railroad track." The trouble, Sorenson pointed out, is that many of the 77 cities that have incorporated in the past 15 years are in huge metropolitan areas, which need unity of gov ernment rather than division. He said the commission was at tempting to find proposals for Gov. Edmund G. Brown that would stop "this fragmentation in metropolitan areas." And he re ported that the Governor wanted those proposals in time for intro duction to the 1061 Legislature. Sorenson said that the commis sion had not come up wilh any definite proposals during ils meet ing here. "We're just getting Ihe stuff un der our belts," he said of testi mony from nine experts who ap peared. Most ol the experts indicated their approval of a new unit of government lor the slate. Bigger than cities or counties, it could be called a "metropolitan district corporation. Sorenson counted five metropol itan areas yi the state over which such a corporation might rule: I. os Angeles, Ihe San Francisco Bay Area, San Diego, Sacramento and Fresno. In addition, Iherc arc four areas glowing so rapidly that they might soon be classed as "metropolitan." He said they arc Orange and San Bernardino coun ties, Santa Barbara Counly and Ihe cities of Bakerslield and Fresno. But despite the expert's approval of a new type of government, Ihe commissioners were more anxious lo see how the present system could be strengthened. "There was a reluctance to go dreaming on ahead at least Lint il wo explore Ihe possibilities of ex isting units," Sorenson said. - One of Ihe. experts was Winston W. Crouch, of the Bureau of Gov ernmental Research at the Uni versity of California I'm a great believer in home rule." he said, "but her0you get several home rulers operating in the same area, you get problems."
